Has Kate Middleton Set Her Sights on Becoming a Fashion Designer? All Signs Point to Yes

Whenever Kate Middleton leaves the house these days, it becomes front-page news. Whether it's an official event or a trip to the supermarket, the media is obsessed. So when it was revealed that she planned to trademark her royal title, the fashion world immediately jumped three steps ahead: Does the Duchess have any interest in becoming a designer? Perhaps a line of long-sleeve, knee-length dresses? A collection of fascinators?

As you may expect, her fashion pursuits aren't nearly as exciting. "Since the name change of the 'Royal Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry' last year, we have been registering our new name and logo in different territories around the world," said a spokesperson. "We included clothing in case we choose, for example, to make T-shirts in years to come, for marathon runners, etc."

Personally, I'm not ruling out something a bit more exciting fashionwise, but for now this will have to do. One thing is for sure: When she designs these marathon T-shirts, they will sell out in seconds.
